Problems solved by technology

However, normal use of headwear is problematic as it often gets lost, misplaced, or falls off the user.

However, taking the headwear off during situations has the disadvantage that people will often forget where they have placed their headwear.

Such removal also causes the user to experience sun on their heads and wind making their hair messy.

When headwear stays on during intense activities, the headwear often falls off and is lost.

However, such devices and clips are inconvenient or unusable during certain activities, the cables, ropes, and clips snag during a variety of activities.

Furthermore, having devices and clips using cable and rope is quite inconvenient, given that the cables and ropes get snagged and pulled off; other devices using a cable and retraction mechanism are heavy, uncomfortable and still get snagged and pulled in their positions of use.

Moreover, when engaging in sports or outdoor activities the cables and ropes get snagged and pulled off.

Additionally, the headwear can be pulled off causing injury if one should fall.

As such, it is common to see people wear their headwear as tight as possible, but of course, this too is problematic as it often is uncomfortable, leads to headaches, and the headwear still falls after sweat lubricates the headwear.

Furthermore, it is common to see people use anti-skid attachments on the arm of eyewear, however this provides no additional traction when worn under headwear instead it's used to secure eyewear around the ear of the user.

In these regards, none of the prior art solutions offer a way to avoid the above described problems.
